We chose the Parlour Car. It was spacious, inviting and harkens to another era. Not rushing, just relaxing and interacting with crew and passengers. Wonderful PSA Theryl offered up interesting and informative stories. Importantly, She couples stories to our destination giving insights that will be missed unless provided by a professional guide. From our perspective a train ride into GC beats driving in hassles and you have amenities in Williams that make experience complete. If desired you can stay a few days in canyon and take train back to Williams. Many options and again the hassles are avoided. If you haven’t experienced train travel or love it like we do this is a MUST on all itineraries. You will be wowed!!
